Okay....
Programme A (cutting) -
Monday: Chest/Biceps/Abs +10-20 mins intense CV at end
Tuesday: Weeks 1 and 2 Rest/Week 3 onwards... sprints/plys
Wednesday: Back(lats/traps)/Triceps/Low Abs +10-20 mins CV
Thursday: Weeks 1-3 Rest/Week 4 onwards... sprints/plys
Friday: Legs/Shoulders/Obliques +10-20 mins CV
Saturday: intense light weights (e.g. supersets) and CV session
Sunday: Rest (maybe play a bit of basketball)
The aim on this programme is to use to lose fat, and preserve muscle strength. Reps will be around 6-10 slow and controlled. Diet will be healthy, little fat, moderate carbs and protein + protien shakes to help boost protein to preserve muscle.
Programme B (bulking) -
Monday: Chest/Abs
Tuesday: Back/Obliques +10 mins CV
Wednesday: Rest
Thursday: Legs/Shoulders
Friday: Arms/Lower Abs +10 mins CV
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest
*I play basketball so extra CV will be done during the week
The aim of this programme is just to bulk up (heavy weights 5-8 reps), I'll be eating whatever I can get my hands on (healthy food obviously, lots of carbs and protein). I'll also take some weight gainer, and cycle some creatine and possibly glutamine in too.
just wanted a bit of feedback on these programmes (any way i can improve them, before I actually use them), I hope to mainly be on the bulking programme most of the year, and just go on the cutting programme for a couple of months every year to keep lean (like b4 the summer/a holiday or something)
thanks

I would recommend this for cutting
MONDAY: Chest, shoulder &tri's
TUESDAY: Cardio and Abs
WEDNESDAY:Back, bi's and forearm
THURDAY: cardio
FRIDAY:LEGS including calfs
SATURDAY: OFF
SUNDAY: Cardio
I wouldn't really recommend cardio after your workout as you really want to be giving your body nutrition. Example a post workout shake which consists of whey protein in one bottle and another containing either dextrose(for the best results) or table sugar or juices.
Leave cardio for seperate days, as you are cutting you won't be going heavy on your legs so three days a week of cardio should be fine.
On your bulk i would leave legs on their own and train them seperate as they are a big muscle and need training. As you are on a bulk then really you don't need the 10 minute cardio sessions so just stick with the basketball practices and matches.
If your going to be mainly doing bulking for the year then do this, just advice you don't have to follow all of it.
MONDAY: Chest
TUESDAY: Shoulders and tri's
WEDNESDAY:BACK
THURSDAY: biceps and forearms
FRIDAY: LEGS
SATURDAY:CARDIO
SUNDAY:Rest
This would work okay, after a few months you could change the routine around just to give your body a shock. But i have singled out your three biggest muscles area which are chest, back and legs. I think as you are new to this that it would be best to build on the biggest muscles and build yourself a platform to work on.
As i said before you can alter to your liking as it's an example but i hope this help you in some way and feel free to pm me if you need further assistance.

Consistancy and Variation is the key to success
I pretty much do the same workout for bulking and cutting only difference is the diet. IMO there is no need to change the workout. Diet is the most important factor.
Know Your Body!
Know Your Drugs!
Know What is For you and What is NOT!
Your right about nutrition, it is important but there is no point in doing all that cardio on a bulk, so i think that the routine should change on a bulk and cut.
